Chapter 228 Terrorist Military Power
After this major adjustment, Xing Tianjun has now formed a pattern of several towns. On the basis of Yan Chongxi and Wang Chengping's headquarters, the Shanshan area is the first town of the National Defense Force. At present and in the future, he will be responsible for the defense of Shanshanshan.
On the basis of Liu Bao and Diao Zheng's departments, they are all classified as the second town of the National Defense Force, responsible for the defense of Henan, Beizhi, Shandong and other places.
The headquarters of Luo Rucai and Li Shuanzhu will be divided into the third town of the National Defense Force in the future, which will be responsible for the defense of Huguang, Sichuan and other places.
The rest are the newly formed soldiers and horses under the command of Shi Ran. In the future, they will be divided into the fourth town of the National Defense Force and be responsible for the defense of Nanzhili, Zhejiang and other places.
As for Liu Yaoben, Luo Li and tens of thousands of horses under the command of Tietou, in fact, it is Xiao Tianjian's personal army for the time being, which belongs to the guard army in the National Defense Army. In the future, it will mainly follow Xiao Tianjian to fight. It is a fist force directly under Xiao Tianjian's hand. It does not divide the defense zone for the time being, but also acts as It's a mobile force.
Among the soldiers and horses in these towns, the guard directly held by Xiao Tianjian is the strongest. Over the years, there have been the most battles and the quality of equipment is also the best. Secondly, the first town of Yan Chongxi has the strongest combat power, and the second is the third town under the command of Luo Rucai and Li Shuanzhu and the second town of Liu Bao and Diao Zheng. Combat effectiveness. At present, the weakest combat effectiveness is probably the generals in the fourth town under Shi Ran. In the fourth town of Shi Ran, most of the soldiers are newly recruited new soldiers, or generals who have been integrated from the officers and troops. The backbone composition is drawn from various departments. At present, it is impossible in terms of equipment or training. Compared with the other towns, but after all, the fourth town is newly established. After some time, it can still quickly improve its combat effectiveness, so this situation will change in the future.
However, Xiao Tianjian is not worried that these generals will have two minds in the future. Over the years, when he built the army, he has been ready to control them. All logistics aspects are under the control of the military department. The food and salary equipment of the soldiers and horses in each town must be allocated from the general logistics department under the military department. Who dares to be private at the local level? If grain and salary are collected, then Xiao Tianjian can know the news at the first time. Then these people with different intentions, even if they can be taken down, it is estimated that it is very difficult for anyone who wants to jump out of this pattern.
Taking advantage of this opportunity to rectify the soldiers and horses, Xiao Tianjian ordered the original guards to transfer and reorganize, list these guards separately, and set up a gendarmerie force to distinguish the responsibilities between them and the guards. The main job of these gendarmes is to do the work of the law enforcement team and are not managed by any generals. He is subordinate to the Ministry of War. While being responsible for protecting military generals at all levels, he also has the responsibility of supervising local military generals, and also the responsibility of enforcing military law in war.
The usual task of the gendarmerie force is not to directly participate in operations. Its functions are mainly to maintain military discipline, restrain other soldiers, and deal with various crimes in the army, especially the violation of military discipline by soldiers. Guarding the national capital, defending important military offices and various military offices, escorting military supplies. To put it bluntly, it is the police in the army, and its status is very detached. However, in order to ensure that the military in various places will not interfere with the war command, the gendarmes are only allowed to supervise and report, but are not allowed to interfere in the wartime command of the military generals.
For Xiao Tianjian's formation of a gendarmerie force this time, in fact, military generals and civilian officials at all levels think very well why. The gendarmerie is the supervisor of the army, but it is different from the supervisor. They only supervise the military discipline, but do not interfere with the command, as long as the generals are old. If you work honestly for the country, then it's nothing, but as long as they have different intentions, the gendarmes are bombs buried around them and can take them down at any time.
If Xiao Tianjian suddenly launched a gendarmerie system like this, the military generals will probably feel very uncomfortable. They will definitely feel that Xiao Tianjian does not trust them and sends people to monitor them. However, since the Xing Tianjun army became an army, Xiao Tianjian has implemented the method of unified deployment of guards in the army, but it has already been clearly forbidden to all troops. The private family was raised, so the guard was replaced by a gendarmerie, which was just a name change, but it did not cause too much disgust from the generals, so the gendarmerie force was quietly established and became a special service independent of each service.
As for Xiao Tian's fitness guard, under the discussion of everyone, it was listed separately from the gendarmes. Iron Head selected 300 of the most capable and loyal generals and stayed on Xiao Tian's fitness side and renamed Yu Linwei. One is fully responsible for Xiao Tianjian's personal safety, and the other is Xiao Tianjian's messenger, although However, these people's military positions are not high, but their status is very detached. These people who can be selected and selected into Yulinwei are all proud of this. This is a position that can honor their ancestors!
After the overall strength of the next few towns was summarized, Xiao Tianjian himself was a little surprised. By the development of the Xing Tian army under his command, the total strength had reached nearly 150,000 people, and these 150,000 horses were basically regular troops, paid by the military, not the local kind of militia. If the establishment of the reserve battalion is regarded as the establishment of the local reserve battalion, the number of people that Xing Tianjun can use is an astronomical figure, and there is no problem to add at least one to 200,000.
If this number is put in later generations, it may not be anything, but in this era, so many people are already very large.
In fact, in history, the number of volunteers such as Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong is often hundreds of thousands or millions, but the water in that number is very large. In their army, the real combatable soldiers actually only accounts for a small proportion, tens of thousands or more than 100,000 people, who can copy the guys to fight, which is very good. There are only tens of thousands of people, and most of the rest are hungry people who make up the rest and run errands, and their combat effectiveness is quite poor.
The number of officers and soldiers on the paper of the Ming Dynasty is also quite large, reaching one million at most. However, the number of officials is removed, and the old, weak soldiers and some auxiliary soldiers are removed. In fact, the number of officers and soldiers is very small.
However, the 150,000 people of Xing Tianjun are basically real fighters. Their ages are roughly between the ages of 15 or 16 and 40, and it can be said that all of them have received relatively strict military training. Therefore, if the same 10,000 to 10,000, the combat effectiveness of Xing Tianjun should exceed There are a lot of opponents, which is also the key to their repeated victories. The number of soldiers is not more but the essence. This is the core of Xing Tianjun's army, so it seems that 150,000 people occupy such a large territory, but in this era, Xing Tianjun is already a super giant.
Xiao Tianjian recalled that he was left by the thief in the world where birds did not lay eggs. He almost starved to death. He was at a loss, and even when he was almost overturned and eaten. Looking at the soldiers and horses in his hand, he couldn't help sighing again. Maybe it's God's care. In just less than seven years, he took advantage of what he learned from later generations to lay down this foundation. Now he can justify the throne to complete his great cause of unifying the world. I'm afraid that this kind of thing can't be very calm with anyone.
Some people say that as long as he is a real man, there may be an emperor's dream buried in his heart. He asked himself that he was not a saint and could not avoid vulgarity. But in the past, it was just a dream, but now he wants to turn this dream into a reality. Thinking of this, he can't help but feel a little complacent.
But when he turned around and thought about it, he felt that there was too much pressure on his shoulders. In order to achieve this current career, he gave up too many things. He found what he loved in the world, but for this career, most of the time, he had to stay away from his love and took his soldiers under his command. Fighting in the blood and fire, what is he for?
Why did this suddenly make Xiao Tianjian fall back to reality again? Is it really just to be able to ascend the throne of the emperor who is admired by tens of thousands of people like today? Ask yourself if he thought so at the beginning. He rebelled. In fact, the most fundamental purpose is to pull the Chinese nation out of the abyss that is about to slide into, so that the Chinese nation will no longer have to be bullied like future generations, become the object of those small countries to slaughter, and change that let There is a heartbreaking history of Chinese people when they think about it.
But has he succeeded now? Think about the group of barbarians in the north. Isn't it still just right to dominate the Liaodong area now? Are you still coveting the Central Plains in the south at any time? Although he has laid such a large territory at present, the Ming Dynasty has not been completely destroyed, and a large area of land is still under the control of the Ming Dynasty. Even if the one in the north is very weak control of these sites, there are still tens of thousands of people under his nominal control. Thousands of Chinese people are still living in deep trouble.
At this time, the warships of those emerging countries in the West have encircled the world, and the whole world is seizing their colonies. Even now they have driven their warships to the coast of China and hit the land of China. At this time, the Chinese nation is still fighting in their own nest. Everyone's eyes are still staring at this land, but they don't know what kind of change is happening in the world. It is also consuming this rare precious time, day by day, month or even year after year.
Thinking of this, Xiao Tianjian had a strong sense of urgency, as if a boulder pressed on his heart in an instant, which made him breathless. He couldn't wait to complete the great cause of unifying China, and then turned his eyes to the sea.
Does all this have to wait until he completely completes the unification? Xiao Tianjian suddenly couldn't sit still, because a voice in his heart told him that no, he couldn't wait any longer. Although he didn't have enough energy and time to do it now, it doesn't mean that he didn't do anything at the moment. At least, now he has to start to do something, and Nanjing More than 200 years ago, there was a person who had done a very valuable thing before any country in the world. He still left his footprints here outside Nanjing.
Seeing that all kinds of things basically began to enter the track, Xiao Tianjian couldn't help but be lazy again. One morning at the end of November, Xiao Tianjian, in the name of rest, did not see any subordinates, but attracted the iron head. After muttering for a while, the iron head shook his head like a rattle drum. He refused to agree without saying anything. In the end, Xiao Tianjian had no choice but to stare at and scold an iron head, so the iron head had to nod helplessly and agree. Xiao Tianjian then changed into a very ordinary casual suit, and secretly slipped out of his temporary handsome man with dozens of Yu Linwei, who also changed into various casual clothes in Tietou. House, go out of the city.
